How do you measure a month ?

In daylight, In minutes, in cups of coffee. So I still have my briefcase of unworthy feelings. I try to leave a little behind everyday at a client visit. I'm a salesperson in this new life. I can only sell what I believe in and right now I'm faking it. I once had a shrink say "you need to fake it to make it" What does that really mean? so once you get use to feeling a certain way it becomes comfortable so it's OK? I view the world as not a pretty place but if you look really close you find moments, small milliseconds, that make it worth while. Fragile fragments that make your heart burst in happiness and you hope you can store this feeling, this fleeting flash into your soul forever. something to reference when life really sucks. I have these moments when my daughter figures something out or when she swam for the first time by herself . Excitement!! When someone steps up and accomplishes something they have been shooting for.. I'm so tired of the news. It is even more depressing I think than before. How about a human interest story? What happened to hard work paying off? Are we so cynical we don't buy it anymore?? Kindness, Love and Little things.. Show someone you appreciate them. What happened to a thank you? Give a thank you or a smile a courtesy. If you can give a millisecond of time and compassion maybe someone will give some to you....
